Holy Shit! Best Video So Far This Year (and other Time Crisis superlatives)

There used to be time to let a song marinate before the video dropped (as opposed to now, when virgin exposure often commences through visuals). That goes double for a deep track that you've played a few dozen times, and imagined some vids for on your own, as is the case for me here.

This video is IMAX-worthy - a triumph to complement a triumph (which is not surprising considering the Emerson connections). These guys threw a house party in Allston last weekend, and I hope all the polluted co-eds there knew that they were witnessing the next group that MTV will play 10-second clips of between reality shows as proof that they support independent music.
